Pierogi is a new word for me. I had to go look it up. My wife makes something like that based on the recipes I read.

The best part was this quote...lol

"While the origin of the pierogi is often under debate, the exact origin of the dish is unknown and unverifiable. It likely originated somewhere in Central Europe or Eastern Europe, and has been consumed in these regions long before any of the present political nations existed. Today, it is a large part of many Central European and Eastern European cultures.

One legend relates that in 1238, Hyacinth of Poland visited Kościelec, and on his visit, a storm destroyed all crops; Hyacinth told everyone to pray and by the next day, crops rose back up. As a sign of gratitude, people made pierogi from those crops for Saint Hyacinth.[15] Another legend states that Saint Hyacinth fed the people with pierogi during a famine caused by an invasion by the Tatars in 1241.[15] One source theorizes that in the 13th century, pierogi were brought by Hyacinth from the Far East (Asia) via what was then the Kievan Rus'.[16] Some believe pierogi came from China via Marco Polo's expeditions through the Silk Road.[17] None of these legends is supported by evidence, such as the etymological origin of the root pirŭ-."

A food that has it's own saint...that has to be good!
